With its progressive geometry, impressive construction and high-end features, the Trail offers unreal performance and a killer value. It's designed for short stems and wide handlebars to maximize control in rough terrain, while the slack 68° head angle creates the stable, confident handling you need to rule the descents. Short chainstays give the Trail an agile, nimble feel and provide great traction on steep climbs. With Shimano hydraulic brakes, a reliable 1x drivetrain, and tubeless-ready wheels, the Trail 3 is ready to rock.

Bought a 2016 Trail 3 for a great clearance price and couldn't be happier. Cannodale makes quality bikes and I really like ride/feel/look . The Trail 2, 3, and 4 are perfect for enthusiasts that want affordable reliability. They great on community bike trails, but will handle more technical trails when called on to do so. The Rockshox 30 silver front forks that came on the Trail 3 suit my needs fine but my wife wanted air adjustable forks so we spent an extra $200 and got her the Trail 2. AS A BONUS WE WERE ABLE TO PUT 2.8 PLUS TIRES ON THESE BIKES. Don't let anyone tell you they won't fit, they do and WOW...what a ride. You can run the 2.8's down at 16-20lbs of air pressure and smooth out the bumps. Not many bikes in this price range will accommodate plus ties. Brandon at Pedal was fantastic and literally spent hours with us to ensure my wife and I got the bikes we wanted, with the options we wanted at an affordable price.
